An eye-catching acoustic-electric that bears the sonic marks of the metal master and good ol' American graphics.

Dave Mustaine named his signature acoustic-electric guitar "Mako" because of its shark gill-shaped soundhole, dorsal fin-shaped bridge, and shark's teeth pearl inlays. The soundhole provides plenty of projection while the sharp Florentine cutaway on the mahogany body with spruce top promotes upper fretboard shredding. The built-in tuner ensures the only dischords you play are intentional. Dave uses his Mako in the studio for layering and texturing tracks and features it on the intro to "The Hardest Part of Letting Go." Other distinctive features on the Dave Mustaine Mako include an ebony fingerboard, black NuBone nut and saddle, Grover tuners, and Fishman ISYS+ preamp with the aforementioned tuner.

I played this guitar about 1-3 hours per week and the frets are already wearing out after less than 3.5 years. Warrantee does NOT cover fret wear. The guitar absolutely sings in sound quality but the frets are super dirt poor quality. I have other guitars I've played for over 20 years that aren't even close to fret wear like this one.
